Jumbleberry Fields Trophy Challenge

The 2017 Webkinz Berry Fest kicked off yesterday, and one of the activities to enjoy is earning a Jumbleberry Fields Trophy. To win the trophy, you must feed your pet 12 jumbleberries, 8 pickleberries and 5 moonberries.

There are a few different ways to get your hands on these berries. The first way, of course, is to play Jumbleberry Fields. Because moonberries are harder to win, you could consider buying some moonberry seed packets from the Ganz eStore.

Then there are the floaty clicky events. You’ll find different types of berries floating around Webkinz World all during Berry Fest (which lasts through June 28th). Also, be sure to stop by Webkinz Newz and find the floaty clicky berry there each day, too.

And remember to check the Daily Activities. There will be berry giveaways during Berry Fest, and you can earn more berries when you spin the Wheel of Yum.

If you get down to the last minute and still don’t have all the berries you need, you can use eStore points to “skip” a task. (You can purchase eStore points online at the Ganz eStore.)

I’ve earned the Jumbleberry Fields Trophy on my GABirdGirl account because I had enough berries saved up to fulfill the tasks. You see, all of my jars in Jumbleberry Fields are currently full, and I’ve been leaving them full so I could trade them in for the newest prizes.

Here’s the Jumbleberry Fields Trophy, front and back:

And here’s how the trophy will look on a pedestal in your trophy collection:

When you win the Jumbleberry Fields Trophy, you also win a Moonberry Gift Basket:

Drag the Moonberry Gift Basket into your pet’s room, and you’ll be awarded 5 moonberries:

Are you excited about the Jumbleberry Fields Trophy? Do you have lots of berries already saved up or are you going to have to win them? Let me know in the comments for some Jumbleberry Fields via Kinzpost. (Friend me on my TreeHuggerJess account. My GABirdGirl account is full right now.)

A Brand New Bake Sale Has Arrived!

Today is the start of the brand new Webkinz bake sale celebration! From now through April 30th, you can collect different baked goods and combine them on a stove to “cook up” one of 10 awesome prizes.

Last year’s Bake Sale was so much fun! I’m really excited that Ganz brought it back with new prizes and goodies! I have a few tips for Bake Sale success that I posted last year – click here to read the post and see how you can make the most of this bake sale fun.

Let’s start with the basics – if you want to cook up prizes, you first need to collect the ingredients. The ingredients are 5 different kinds of baked goods, and there are actually 5 different ways to collect them!

1. “Today’s Annoucements” – you get one baked good just for logging into your account.
2. Spin the Wheel of Yum – make sure you head over to Today’s Activities to spin the Wheel of Yum and collect another baked good. (and maybe even win a Blueberry Prize Pie!)
3. Looking for floating baked goods in Webkinz World. Keep your eyes open for the floating baked goods all around Webkinz World – you can collect up to 5 per day!
4. Floating gift box on Webkinz Newz. When you’re doing your daily activities on Webkinz Newz, be on the lookout for the floating blue and white gift box. Click on it to send a gift box back to your Webkinz account – it will contain one baked good!
5. Keep checking Today’s Activities – throughout the day there will be random baked good giveaways, so check the Today’s Activities list to find out when.

As I mentioned above, in total there are 5 different types of baked goods (and they all look so yummy!):

Even though these foods look super yummy, remember that you must cook a specific combination of baked goods on a stove in order to get the prizes – simply feeding them to your pet won’t work. (All of the recipes are available in a cookbook that you get for free just for logging into your account!)

The prizes for this year’s Bake Sale are a little different. There’s no particular theme like last year where you could build a sweet shop or a school cafeteria. This year is a mixture of furniture and accessories that will work with many different themes. There are 10 prizes total – are you going to try to cook up all 10?

Don’t forget about the Grand Prize! Feed your pet a slice of Blueberry Prize Pie for a chance to win this awesome nautical-themed bunk bed:

You can purchase a piece of Blueberry Prize Pie in the Ganz eStore for 2500 eStore points.

Or, if you’re lucky, you might win one when you spin the Wheel of Yum!

I purchased one slice of Blueberry Prize Pie and won another through the Wheel of Yum this morning. Take a look below to see what prizes I got:

Here’s a peek at 3 of the prizes I’ve collected so far:

First is the Mega Modern Carpet, which actually has two different styles/designs depending on which way you turn it:

(This carpet is in a room that I’m building for my Blue Avenue Pomeranian!)

Next is the Campkinz Lake Tile, which is smaller than I thought it would be:

I’m hoping I can make enough Campkinz Lake Tiles to fill up the ocean scene I’ve been working on:

You can see that I’ve used the Cozy Yacht Bed and several items available exclusively on Vacation Island. (Vacation Island is only available to Deluxe members!)

Last up I have the Fancy Hotel Dining Chair:

I’m really excited about this prize because it’s a perfect fit for the Hotel Theme. As you can see, I paired the Fancy Hotel Dining Chair with the Fancy Hotel Dining Table you can buy with Wish Tokens in the Wish Factory. (Remember that Deluxe members can earn tokens each day by spinning the Wheel of Wishes!)

Which of the Bake Sale prizes are your favorites? What’s your plan for collecting as many Baked Goods as possible? Let me know in the comments, and I’ll send you a prize from last year’s Bake Sale! 🙂

2017 Spring Mystery Clothing Bags

I’m sure you can guess that I was *very* excited about the arrival of the 2017 Spring Mystery Clothing Bags at the Ganz eStore. I started out by buying four mystery clothing bags, and then I just kept buying and buying! 🙂

It’s been a while since I’ve made a video, so I decided to do one where I open/unbox all of the 2017 Spring Mystery Clothing Bags I purchased. There are so many that I had to do the video in fast motion.

If you like the clothes I won in my 2017 Spring Mystery Clothing Bags, then head over to the Ganz eStore and pick some up…they won’t be around forever! And don’t forget that Deluxe members get a discounted price!

I hope you enjoy the video!

Family Score of 400,000: Gizmo Buddy

Last week I hit the Family Score of 400,000 on both of my accounts and got the Gizmo Buddy!

As you can see, the Gizmo Buddy is a cute little gold and blue robot:

The Gizmo Buddy is one of the several types of “Pet Buddies” you can buy, collect or win for your pets. These Pet Buddies float or fly around your pet in the Clubhouse. You used to be able to see Pet Buddies in your house as well, but that function hasn’t been restored yet since the release of Webkinz X.

Here’s what the Gizmo Buddy looks like in a room in the Clubhouse:

As I mentioned above, there are actually quite a few different Pet Buddies to choose from. One type is the “Zumbuddy.”

Here’s an example of what a Zumbuddy looks like:

Zumbuddies unlock a special area of the Magical Forest called “Zumwhere,” where you can play with your Zumbuddies and earn prizes.

Zumbuddies have their own room, and your pet can sit beside them and watch them play. Here is my Blue Avenue Kitten playing with her Zums:

Plush Zumbuddies are available on Amazon, such as Zreth, a Giggly Zum:

If you prefer the virtual versions, check out the Zumbuddies in the Ganz eStore. There are quite a few to choose from:

Speaking of the Ganz eStore, there are other types of Pet Buddies you can buy there as well. Right now there are 3 different Pet Buddies you can buy using your eStore points.

There’s Cinder, the Baby Dragon:

Melanie the Good Fairy:

And Wanda the Bad Fairy:

What do you think about Pet Buddies? Do you have any Pet Buddies? Let me know in the comments for a special Zumbuddy surprise via Kinzpost!

2017 Spring Clothing Line has arrived!

I am very excited to announce the arrival of the 2017 Spring Clothing Line in the Kinzstyle Shop! I hope you stocked up on your favorite items from the 2016 Fall Clothing Line because it was retired earlier this week.

I am absolutely thrilled with the spring clothing collection PJ Collie has put together for us. 🙂 The pieces all mix and match so well, and the main colors – pale blue and mint green – are just perfect for spring. In addition to several pieces of clothing, there are a couple of pairs of shoes and some really fun (and cute!) accessories. You’re going to love putting together spring celebration outfits for your pets!

You can find all 12 of the pieces of the 2017 Spring Clothing Line in the “new” section at the Kinzstyle Outlet:

Before we get to the fashion show, let’s break down the 2017 Spring Clothing Line by name and price – notice that four of the items are only available to Deluxe members:

1. Blue Gumboots 240 kinzcash
2. Cinched Sweater 400 kinzcash
3. Dark Blue Paisley Shorts 215 kinzcash
4. Floral Headband 135 kinzcash
5. Light Green Slacks 290 kinzcash (Deluxe only)
6. Lightly Layered Skirt 380 kinzcash (Deluxe only)
7. Lovely Spring Sunglasses 180 kinzcash
8. Paisley Newsboy 225 kinzcash (Deluxe only)
9. Pretty Bow Flats 215 kinzcash
10. Spring Gradient Tee 250 kinzcash
11. Springtime Trench 450 kinzcash
12. Springy Vest 230 kinzcash (Deluxe only)

Now it’s time to see how these items look on some Webkinz pets! I hope that these outfits I put together will help you decide which pieces from the 2017 Spring Clothing Line you want most. Or maybe you want all 12 pieces!

First up is my Blue Persian Kitten named Audrey – I wanted to showcase my two absolute favorite items from the 2017 Spring Clothing Line: the Floral Headband and the Lovely Spring Sunglasses:

I paired these adorable accessories with a Bluebird Dress (a clothing item that was available in the 2016 Summer Mystery Clothing Bag). I absolutely love the way the little yellow details in the flowers match the yellow ribbon on the dress.

Now let’s take a look at a couple of the items that are only available to Deluxe members – the Light Green Slacks and the matching Springy Vest:

This outfit is being modeled by Luna, my Moon Fox. The top is called a Springy Vest, but it’s actually a vest over top of a blue button down shirt. I’ve added the Lovely Spring Glasses to the look because I think the green of the frames match perfectly with the color of the pants and vest. Overall, I just think this is a really hip and cool look.

Here’s a look at my Grumpy Cat modeling the Springtime Trench:

The Springtime Trench costs 450 kinzcash, making it the most expensive item in the whole collection. The Springtime Trench is the only piece in the 2017 Spring Clothing Line that features the color pink. Pink is one of my favorite colors, so I’m loving the flowers on this trench coat and the matching pink belt.

To play up the pink in the Springtime Trench, I paired it with a pair of Designer High Heels, which are a prize you can buy at the Spree Mall. (Get to the Spree Mall even faster when you purchase bonus turns at the Ganz eStore!)

Now we’ll take a look at my Black Panther Muerta modeling a fresh look for a warm spring day:

The Pretty Bow Flats are another one of my favorite items in this line. They’re very versatile, and I am sure I’ll be pairing them up with lots of different outfits from all sorts of collections. To keep the look light and airy, I paired up the Lightly Layered Skirt with the Basic White Tank Top (a piece from the “PJ Collie gets back to basics” collection). I love the swirling designs on the Lightly Layered Skirt and the wide range of blues. Of course I had to add the Floral Headband for an extra girlie touch!

So speaking of many shades of blue, let’s take a look at the Spring Gradient Tee:

The Spring Gradient Tee is being modeled here by Sadie, my mocha pup. I decided to give Sadie an outdoorsy look, like she’s ready to go on a nice spring hike. Besides just being pretty, I like the Spring Gradient Tee because of the little details, like the collar and the button on the front. The sleeves are puffed, so you could use this shirt to create a much dressier outfit if you wanted to.

The shorts are Cuff Chinos, which were a prize in the August Deluxe Gift Box. I also added some Blue Camo Sneakers so Sadie can play outdoors and enjoy the beautiful spring weather. 🙂 The Blue Camo Sneakers came in the June Deluxe Gift Box. If you’re into collecting clothes like I am, then you’ll love the monthly Deluxe Gift Boxes. Each one features a special piece of clothing you can’t get anywhere else. In fact, they’re so exclusive that you can’t even buy them in the eStore!

If you find yourself jumping through mud puddles after a spring shower, then you’ll want a pair of the Blue Gumboots:

I decided to have my Black Panther model the Blue Gumboots by themselves so you can see all of the great details. For instance, I really like the strap with the gold buckle at the top. As you can see, the soles are very rugged, which is a bit different than the way the boots are pictured in the Kinzstyle Outlet. These Blue Gumboots would look really cute with the rain jacket and hat you can win in the 2017 Spring Mystery Clothing Bags.

Muerta is going to model for us one last time:

I brought back the Basic White Tank Top to put together the Dark Blue Paisley Shorts and the Paisley Newsboy. (The Paisley Newsboy is only available to Deluxe members.) These shorts and this hat are obviously a perfect match, but each piece individually is also great. A lot of attention to detail went into creating this paisley pattern. With all these shades of blue, I bet the Dark Blue Paisley Shorts would look good with the Spring Gradient Tee as well. I finished off the look with the Pretty Bow Flats because I love how fresh and clean the white accessories make the outfit feel.

Last but certainly not least, we’ve got Taffy, my Ribbon Yorkie, modeling the Cinched Sweater:

The Cinched Sweater costs 400 kinzcash, making it the second most expensive item in the collection. I love the striped/swirly belt that “cinches” the waist of the sweater, and the fluffy cuffs and matching fluffy hem make this sweater feel more dressy than the other very casual items in the 2017 Spring Line. I mixed and matched a lot with Taffy’s outfit, combining the Plain Black Skirt with some very dressy Pearl Sandals (sometimes available at the Ganz eStore). Once again, the Floral Headband is a perfect match. I really love how these greens and blues coordinate – these colors make it so easy to put together great outfits!

Well, that’s the whole 2017 Spring Clothing Line! 🙂 What’s your favorite item? Which items are you planning to buy? Let me know in the comments, and I’ll send you an item from the 2017 spring collection via Kinzpost!

Free Webkinz codes have been popping up all over! In case you missed some of them, I decided to gather as many as I could find and put them here in this post. Most of these codes have expiration dates, so be sure to enter them as soon as possible.

It’s a little late for Valentine’s Day, but you can hold onto this item to use next year:

Valentine Decorative Mailbox: W24V C9A7 UPC7 89RL

If you like the Chocolate Shop theme, then you can head over to the Ganz eStore and pick up a Chocolate Shop Ice Cream Counter that dispenses three different kinds of ice cream treats! In fact, there’s an entire section of chocolate-themed items to choose from!

Sassy Seafaring Theme

Last month I wrote about the Nautical Navy theme and how Ganz was trying something new by offering the theme items in mystery boxes. This month Ganz has released a companion theme called “Sassy Seafaring.”

I say it’s a companion theme because the items in the Sassy Seafaring collection mix and match very well with the items in the Nautical Navy theme.

I already have some of Nautical Navy items, so I decided to add onto that collection and start building a nautical themed nursery. My first step was to buy the Sassy Seafaring Wallpaper and the Sassy Seafaring Flooring from the Ganz eStore.

Next I bought three mystery boxes – it’s called a  Sassy Seafaring ?? Box.

Box #1: A Sassy Seafaring Crib

Your pet can sleep in the Sassy Seafaring Crib:

Box #2: Another Sassy Seafaring Crib

Box #3: A Sassy Seafaring Laundry Hamper

The Sassy Seafaring Laundry Hamper is actually a clothing storage container:

As was the case with the Nautical Navy items, the Sassy Seafaring mystery box items are tradeable.

Here’s a look at the room that I’ve put together so far – the blue rocking chairs and the giant teddy bear (which is a slide) are from the Nautical Navy theme. It still has a long way to go!

What do you think of these two new themes? Do you like the mystery boxes? Let me know in the comments!

Free Webkinz Code: Chocolate Shop Uniform

Go to the Code Shop and enter the code below for a FREE Chocolate Shop Uniform!

Here’s the Chocolate Shop Uniform on my Lovely Fox…remember, if you have the Lovely Fox, you’ll get bonus activities throughout the month of February!

Valentine’s Day Fashion

Winners: Puffer Vest Giveaway

Hello Webkinz friends! I’m sorry I’ve been away for a while. Sometimes I have to go out in the real world and be an adult. 🙂 Hopefully I won’t have to do that again for a bit!

Here are the two rooms that won the drawing for a Ganz eStore Puffer Vest!

Both of these rooms look like such a fun place to play!

Check out this awesome winter wonderland where you can walk through the snowy trees or take a turn on the Snow Fort Slide – which is a Winterfest Cookie grand prize! And look at that cute little panda hat this Webkinz pet is wearing. I believe that was a clothing item available in the 2016 Golden Cracker Gift. Look closely and you can see the piles of snowballs all ready for a snowball fight!

Our other winner is an indoor room. You can bounce in the beautiful winter bouncy castle (the prize for the December Deluxe Monthly Challenge) or jam out with your friends on the frozen guitar and drum set. I also love the beautiful grand staircases leading down into the room. So pretty!

Thank you to my winners for sharing these awesome room designs with us! If you want a Puffer Vest, head over to the Ganz eStore where you can pick one up – but only for a limited time!

If you need eStore points, now is a great time to buy them. You can get a free Amethyst Wardrobe when you buy 33,000 or more eStore points between now and February 15th!
